Greetings,

I have modified the ps in all my clients so that it also sends out 
per-process cpu usage, and now am trying to use a regular perl 
expression in the search for processes with a certain usage percentage.  
Here is what i have:
%(8\d{2}\.\d{2})|(9[0-4]\.\d{2}) and %(9[5-9]\.\d{2})|(1\d{2}\.\d{2}) as 
2 of my searches

These don't work however, because they pull up everything that is 8.xx 
8x.xx 9.xx 9x.xx 1.xx 1x.xx and 1xx.xx  I know these espressions work, 
because i tested them in a perl application...  all i am trying to make 
it pull out is 8x.xx 9x.xx and 1xx.xx

Any ideas for a fix (either a patch or another way to do this type of a 
search)??

thanks,
Adam
